What is Learning Presence.?
Learning Presence. is a live online community practice series for cultivating everyday mindful living, emotional regulation, intentional relating and Whole-being Wellbeing™.
We gather briefly, twice each Tuesday and Thursday, to practice presence from inside the lives we already have.
You do not need to clear your life in order to practice presence.
Come from wherever you are, within the life you are already living. Expect me to do the same.
What happens when we gather?
For 15–20 minutes, I guide us through a simple practice of presence.
Depending on the day, we may work with breath, body, attention, noticing, grounding, reflection or another accessible practice for bringing awareness into everyday life.
There is nothing to perform and no particular state you need to achieve.
We arrive. We practice. We return to our lives.
Practice for real life.
You do not need previous mindfulness experience, special equipment or a perfectly quiet environment.
You may be joining before the household wakes up, preparing for work, settling in after a long day or moving through whatever else your life contains.
You do not need to make yourself, your surroundings or your life presentation-ready before you arrive.
Bring the life that is actually happening.
